These days things that go wrong are much more likely to be banks changing something on their end to make the connections not compliant with ofx standards. But it also has been almost 10 years since I used the setup wizard, so I don’t remember much about it, and can’t give you useful advice.

I’d suggest making balance sheets for each year to exported. Afterwards I would use File\Export\Transactions to CSV. There I would select the appropriate time range. I also would export the account structure to CSV. In the one-year-only file I would import the account structure and make entries for the opening balances. Lastly I would import the transactions from the CSV files.

[GNC] Splitting a multi-year file
Hi. For the past decade, I've had only a few gnucash files, not one per year: basically, I'd create a new one when the file would be large enough at the end of the year to notice that startup time. If I wanted to retroactively split them by single year as I started doing now, how could I do that? Is there a smarter way to do it other than treating it as just another XML file and editing it manually? Of course, I am aware that I would have to create a few transactions for end of year closing and new year opening.

Re: [GNC] I would like different Preference settings for different files, same user
A bug was filed on this issue in November of 2007 (!). https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=493789 I've updated it to to point to this thread. I strongly encourage those of you who who feel that this is important to add yourselves to that bug. I've not found documentation on how the gnucash developers prefer one express interest. A common technique in many communities is simply to (create a bugzilla account on bugs.gnucash.org, then) login and add a single comment with the text "+1". This will express your interest to the developers, add you to receive emails about the evolution of the bug, and make it easy to find again (in principle, anyway).

Re: [GNC] I would like different Preference settings for different files, same user
I'd happily +1 a bug report that it should be a book preference rather than a user preference. It makes no sense to me to force a user to see the same fiscal year everywhere s/he looks but then to let multiple users see the same book with different fiscal years.

Re: [GNC] How to set up Standing Order/Direct Debit with different first amount in GnuCash

Set up the payment to suit the 2nd-and-subsequent instalments 2. Trigger the SX (maybe well before the actual due date, but so what) by adjusting the "create in advance" setting 3. Adjust the amnout on the resulting advance (1st) txn 4. Put the "create in advance" back to what it should be (If the timing is right, the "create in advance" tweaks are unnecessary, of course.) ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
